Power Seats I have a 2000 Blazer we just got and the power seats which have the memory, heat and lumbar worked great. Our son put a new motor in it and now the seats don't work. The manual doesn't give you much help as to if it is a fuse or what. Any ideas or idea of where to look to resolve? I havent been able to drive it yet cause the seats won't move and i'm short HA. Thanks for your help

Power Seats System Description and Operation
Power Seat System Operation
There are 2 options of power seat systems available in full size trucks. The 6 way driver and passenger power seats, and 8 way driver and passenger power seats with driver memory. For the driver memory seat operation refer to Memory Seats Description and Operation . Power seats without memory are completely controlled through the power seat switch. Battery voltage is supplied to the power seat switch through the power seat circuit breaker. While the seat adjuster switches are in an inactive state the switch contacts are closed to the power seat switch ground circuit. When a power seat switch is pressed to an active state the switch contact is closed to the battery voltage supply circuit. Each seat adjuster motor is controlled by the power seat switch through 2 motor control circuits. The seat adjuster motors are bidirectional and the direction of adjuster motor rotation is determined by which of the adjuster motor control circuits is switched to battery voltage while the other remains grounded.


( I'm not good at wiring an running an ohm meter.) well then you need to take it to a qualified repair shop.

unplug it or pull fuse

Heated Seats
This system allows independent seat electrical heating of each front seat on demand.
The components of the system are:

• the seat heater mats located on the seat cushion and backrest.
• the heated seat module located on the passenger power seat track and cushion frame on manual seat track.
• the heated seat switches, located on the electronic automatic temperature control (EATC) module.
• temperature sensors, located in the seat cushion heater mats.

A new heater mat will come assembled on a new foam pad.
Climate Controlled Seats
The climate control seat system is able to heat and cool the front seats. Each climate controlled seat is operated by push-buttons on the electronic automatic temperature control (EATC) module located on the instrument panel. Each front seat temperature is then monitored and controlled by the climate control seat module (CCSM) located on the front passenger seat track.
The climate controlled seat system contains the following components:

• EATC module
• CCSM
• Thermo-electric device (TED) and blower assembly within each front seat cushion and backrest
• Air filter (attached to each TED and blower assembly)
• Cushion TED adapter attached to the cushion frame
• Cushion and backrest manifolds
• Cushion and backrest foam pads
• Cushion and backrest trim covers
• Seats
  Front Seats
  NOTE: The high speed controller area network (HS-CAN) circuits that pass through the passenger seat harness are part of the main HS-CAN LOOP. If the front passenger seat-to-floor connectors are disconnected, a NO START condition will result.
  NOTE: The medium speed controller area network (MS-CAN) circuits that pass through the driver seat harness are part of the main MS-CAN LOOP. If the front driver seat-to-floor connectors are disconnected, various MS-CAN modules will not be able to communicate.
  The front seats can be equipped with the following systems:
  
  • Two-way manual seat track (passenger only)
  • Four-way manual seat track (driver only)
  • Six-way power seat track
  • Manual recline
  • Power recline
  • Backrest, without fold flat
  • Backrest with fold flat (optional, passenger only)
  • Heated seats
  • Heated/cooled climate controlled seats
  • Memory driver seat
  • Manual lumbar (driver only)
  • Power lumbar
  • Adjustable head restraints
  • Seat side air bags (standard)
  • Occupant classification sensor (OCS) system on passenger seat
  
  Driver Seat Module - Memory Seat
  The power driver seat, power outside rear view mirrors and power adjustable pedals are controlled by the driver seat module (DSM) only when the vehicle is equipped with the programmable/recall memory option. The DSM is located on the driver seat track.
  This system allows automatic positioning of the driver seat to 2 programmable positions.
  
  • A power driver seat position can be stored at any time. The driver must move the seat to the desired position using the driver seat switch assembly. The driver must then depress the memory SET switch which activates the memory SET switch light emitting diode (LED). Within 5 seconds (before the LED goes out), the driver must select a memory position. Memory 1 is selected by depressing memory switch 1. Memory 2 is selected by depressing memory switch 2.
  • If no memory switch input is received within the 5-second time limit, the operation is aborted and the memory seat position switch (set switch) LED is turned OFF. This also occurs if one of the following inputs is received during the 5-second programming limit:
    • Driver seat control switch
    • Memory seat position switch (set switch)
    • Power adjustable pedal switch
  A programmed seat position can only be recalled when the transmission selector is in PARK or NEUTRAL with the ignition switch in the RUN position. A position may be programmed at any time.
• Principles of Operation
  Driver and Passenger Power Seats Without Memory
  The driver and front passenger power seat motors are hardwired to the seat control switches on each respective seat. The circuits are normally at ground through the seat control switch. Each individual seat track, recliner (if equipped) and lumbar (if equipped) motor circuit is switched to power when the specific adjustment position is selected.
  
  Power Driver Seat With Memory
  The driver power seat is controlled by the driver seat module (DSM), if equipped. The memory driver seat feature allows the driver to program a personalized seat position that can be recalled using the memory switch or a remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter. There are 2 memory settings possible. The outside rear view mirror positions are also stored and recalled with the power driver seat positions.
  The DSM is located underneath the driver seat cushion frame. The DSM does not require calibration to the driver seat track.
  The driver seat control switch provides voltage to the DSM when activated. The NEUTRAL position of each driver seat control switch position is a ground state through the seat control switch contacts. A voltage input causes the DSM to power the appropriate motor until the input is removed. Ground is the normal state of the motor circuits through the DSM and is not switched to control the motors. The DSM internally switches the appropriate circuit from ground to power for operating the motors.
  As the seat is adjusted, the DSM constantly monitors the motor position sensors to record the current seat position. The DSM will remove power from the motor upon termination of the seat control switch input or if the DSM does not see movement from the motor by monitoring the position sensor.
  The DSM communicates diagnostic trouble code (DTC) and other information using the MS-CAN communication bus. It should be noted for diagnostics that because CAN bus communication is more robust and reliable than other methods, it may be possible to have limited module communication with one of the CAN bus circuits disconnected or shorted to ground. Refer to Section 418-00 for information concerning MS-CAN bus communication.

Do you have memory or not ?

Taking the vehicle to a qualified repair shop an having a diagnostic scan of the seat module's done could save time an money , by not replacing parts needlessly .

Your best bet , have it checked for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes first ! Electronic control modules involved ! Can't check with a OBD 2 code reader , need advanced scan tool . No codes , check B+ voltage and ground to the module .
Power Seat Inoperative (With Memory A45)
Memory Seat Feature Inoperative
Circuit/System Description
Battery voltage is supplied at all times to the memory seat module (MSM) from the MDL-MEM 10A fuse located in the rear fuse block. This voltage is used by the MSM for logic power and to supply battery reference voltage to the seat and lumbar adjuster switches. Battery positive voltage is also supplied at all times to the MSM from the PWR SEAT 25A circuit breaker. This voltage is connected to a power rail internal to the MSM and is used to drive the power seat motors, lumbar motors, and seat heater elements on vehicles equipped with heated seats. Each seat and lumbar adjuster motor is controlled by the MSM through 2 motor control circuits. The MSM connects all motor control circuits on the power rail to a common reference point whenever they are not in operation. This reference point is biased to approximately 2.5 volts. The MSM checks to see if the reference voltage is shorted to ground or battery before enabling any of the seat or lumbar motors.

Circuit/System Description
Reference voltage is supplied to the memory switch from the driver door module (DDM). When a memory switch is pressed, reference voltage is applied through the switch contacts, a series of resistors and thorough the memory switch signal circuit to the DDM. The door module then sends a serial data message to the memory seat module (MSM) indicating the memory recall request. The MSM then commands the appropriate seat motors to move to the pre-recorded seat positions stored in memory in response to the switch input.

wire harness under the drivers floor gets wet and after time he splice for power to the seat starts to corrode and the splice breaks it is the Orange wire if you fix splice the seats should work

if motor seemed to slowly get worse over time then there is a great chance that the motor is gone. You will have to unplug the motor and test for power at the motors connector. if the power is good when switch is activated then the motor is dead, but if no power is found then you either have a bad switch or connector or a wiring harness problem. It will not be the fuses since the driver and passenger seats are the same. also one more thing to check is if your vehicle has memory seats then if no power is found at motor, this memory module mounted to seat could be the problem..

Most probably the gear or cable broke.

I wonder if you dont have a bad switch. I had a similar problem on my car except that it was the heated seats that would not engage... the power seat buttons all worked just fine. I changed the switch and it fixed the problem...

Note: this was on a BMW not a Murano

yes they will same plug in

i dont thing there is something to do with the power seats when you blew an engine, plus the power locks too.

im thingking, when you put the engine, a lot of wires and fuse boxes are in the engine compartment, you could probably disconnect some wire that are on the way on changing the engine and forgot to put the wires back together.

that is the only thing i could think of..

i hope i answered your questions...

tnx
